Are you a person who "loves the mountains"? if so, you are missing the Interlaken area. This is the area that is home to the Jungfrau (i probably didn't spell it correctly) and the Lauderbruden Valley (again, i am sure i mispelled that as well).

I have been to Switzerland 2 times and both times ended up for a couple of days in this area. If i ever went back, i would stay in this area again.

I think this region is considered "Berner Oberland". My husband and i have travellled to Europe probably 11 or 12 times over the last 13 or so years and this particular area is still our favorite. When i think "Switzerland", i always think "Interlaken".

I would blow off Bern and spend time in a smaller community like this. You really need at least 3 days in the region to do it justice as well!

Whatever you do, i envy you.
